1.0.x
	- initial version
	
1.1.1
	- OTF_Reader now considers the return values of the handlers
	- added OTF_VERBOSE, OTF_DEBUG macro for error treatment
	- introduced 'UnknownRecord' handler which allows to catch
	  unknown record types

1.1.2
	- inverted return value of call-back handlers: 
    '0' is non-error, '!= 0' is regarded as an error, now!
    (this makes OTF conform with the VTF3 scheme.)

1.1.3
	- fixed a minor bug in otfaux

1.1.4
	- fixed a bug in OTF_Reader which might have caused the very first 
	time stamp of a trace to be not properly sorted
	- introduced '--snapshots' and '--statistics' switches to do only 
	snapshots or statistics. for statistics a selective mode is allowed
	which regards only some streams. By this means statistics can be created
	in parallel by calling otfaux multiple times.

1.1.5
	- have UnknownRecord report handle incomplete records or additional bytes at 
	the end of a file.

1.2.0
	- introduce transparent zlib compression

1.2.1
	- added progress functions using read bytes instead of timestamps

1.2.2
	- important bugfix: definitionstream 0 was ignored since version 1.2.0

1.2.3
	- bugfix: provided copy handlers returned wrong value

1.2.4
	- bugfix: zlib compression bug, wrong sanity check fixed

1.2.5
	- bugfix: correctly handle process groups with more than 1000 entries

1.2.6
	- support shared libraries
1.2.7
	- added progress functions to OTF_RStream
	- added a progress counter to otfmerge
1.2.8
	- allow suffix '.dylib' for zlib library file (from Mac OS X)
	- removed configure warning

1.2.9
	- changeable zlevel
	- changeable zbuffersize

1.2.10
	- bugfix: otfmerge does no longer accept traces with local streams

1.2.11
	- changed OTF_RETURN*( 0=success, !0 = error )
	- added these macros to all internal functions and tools for better
	  consistency
	- fixed various memoryleaks in otf and otfmerge
	- added otfconfig to tools. otfconfig shows installationparameters
	  important for developers
	- updated documentation
	
1.2.12
	- removed intel compiler warnings in otfmerge
	- removed debug output
	- fixed 64bit issue

1.2.13
	- removed intel compiler warnings
	- changed OTF_FILETYPE_*-macros
	- fixed issues with OTF_getFilename()

1.2.14
	- do not linke with '-lz' if '--with-zlibsymbols' was specified
	- added zlib include line to otflib/Makefile.am

1.2.17
	- bugfixed parser (wrong treatment of unknown records)
	- bugfixed otfmerge
1.2.18
	- fixed autotools problems with otfdump
	- added fwrite check for writting less bytes than expected
